New Venue in Detroit: Book Tower

Hi I’m JLB a photographer in Michigan and I wanted to tell you about a new event venue in Detroit: Book Tower. It’s a skyscraper built in the 1920’s that recently received some major upgrades: restaurants, apartments, a boutique hotel, and a rooftop event venue.

I recently photographed a wedding at Book Tower and wanted to share some work from it. There are so many interesting photo backdrops here.

  • The 3 story lobby is breathtaking with this marble staircase attached to it.

  • There’s a space for ceremony’s on the top floor and a green room down the hall.

  • There’s another space you can rent out for getting ready or just to chill in, and it has a patio with some views.

  • Now the reception space is self is pretty wild: glass ceilings, hardwood flooring, intricate chandeliers, stylish bar area.

Since the atrium has different vibes between day & night and I knew the couple were switching outfits… I had an idea for a animated GIF of the couple dancing and everything changing.

The in-house event staff there is called Anthology Events and they were wonderful to work with. Give them a call if you are looking to have an event at one of the coolest places in the city.
